Can you think of other reason why the use of khadi could not spread among some classes, castes and regions of India?  

Answer:

The wearing of khadi could not spread all over India for the reasons given below :   (i) Khadi was costly and most people could not spin it at home and then weave it for cloth. Rich people were not interested in khadi cloths: they preferred western outfits.   (ii) Caste regulation limited people to wearing certain type of dresses only and in some cases, khadi clothes of the kind traditionally worn by them were not available.   (iii) The remote regions of India were not even aware of what kind was, Why they should wear it and where to get it. So the wearing of khadi did not penetrate all over India.
